BlueSerenade 11 months ago#21 This seems pretty awful. I don’t know anything about photography, I’ll admit that, but there’s no way that this picture could be construed as good or even passable photography. Come on man, she’s black! After countless pictures of me in dark venues, I’ve discovered one thing; taking pictures of black people in dark surroundings without some sort of flash, just doesn’t bode well.
